We have a new family member and he is Thim!

Jonna have wanted a dog for a long time. I have been saying no.

I was saying it’s too comiting, it will stop me from traveling, flying and soo on. I was selfish. I changed my mind. About time, I know…

Jonna found him on smartahundar.se. He was one of six little boarder collies. I could see that Jonna wanted one asap. I told her that we should buy one. During one of the tuesday evening touringsession in Åre, we decided that Thim was going to move to trostebacken. Said and done.

 Thim the bandit…

Last wednesday we drove 800km to Vänersborg, stayed at my moms place and the day after we picked up little Thim. Since then we have not left his side. :-)

 Happy Jonna

 Important eyecontact.

 Mom and Thim checking for food…

Well i have to say I am happy about our new family member. I dont know realy what will come out of it but me and Jonna realy love our little Thim. He’s a superdog!

He is fantastic, clever and just everything a little dog could possibly be:-) He surprises us every day, for example traveling for 12 hours in a car and being very calm. Not getting carsick, not whining at all, just being lovely.

 First steps on snow.

 Still happy and sweet after a 12 hour carride…

Then when arriving in his new home in Trostebacken, being full of energy of course ;-) , mind it then we where knocked out… Soo he did his thang and then fell asleep with us :-) He kind of figures things out fast.

 Silence I’m sleeping.

He has already gotten found of us, even though we’ve only had him for four days.

I think we will have a good life together here in Trostebacken Jämtland Sweden.

New season, new ideas ;-)

Yeah, it looks like yet another good winter. I feel it…

Sofar I’ve managed to splitboard once and it will be alot more of that the next couple of weeks. I hope the snow will fall in big flakes ;-)

My good friend Henning has bought a Voile Splitboard!

Another friend of mine got herself a new glider, stylish and colourfull! Pernilla will be an easy target for pics this winter…

I bought a snowmobile. yes I know it’s a bad ”investment”, but I’m here to have fun. Not to save money…

So it looks like I can discover, for me, new hills around where we live. Lunndörren, Anarisfjällen, and alot of interesting fjells are to be ridden. Looking at the map over snowmobiletracks makes me happy. Snowmobile there and splitboard up and down. Great plan, eh?

Flyingwise I flown once with my Little Cloud Kagoo. It’s sooo good. 5 star.

I have a few photos in the chapter about the Dharamsala out and return. www.xcshop.com if U wanne check it out!

Splitboard season on in Åre :-)

 K2 Panoramic splitboard 162…

Sun shining. A few degrees below zero. I need exercise and I have a splitboard.

Snowmaking machines are working full power. And yesterday we got some fresh snow.

I went for a run yesterday so my legs were abit tired today but i needed to get out…

Gästrappet is the name of the slope where Skistar puts alot of effort at the moment. I went over there and put the skins on my K2 splitboard. On the way up I realised that conditions were actually  rather ok…

Sun was shining once I got abit up and it was lovely to be back on the splitboard. Though I’m not fit at all. India was toooo good for me. Good food and lotsa chillin’

But now I’m back on LCHF and exercise. Should be full on in a month again.

Winter is here. Happy Fred :-)
